Iraq
British SAS capture 3 Isis kak saks in daring lightning raids VIC Mosul
2016-05-08
[Intl Bus Times] British SAS troopers have successfully kidnapped three Islamic State (Isis) chiefs in daring lightning raids in Mosul, according to reports. The city is the largest in Iraq still under Isis (Daesh) control, but is facing increased pressure from the north, south and east by the Iraqi army, Kurdish Peshmerga forces and US-led Western airstrikes.

British special forces, including the Special Air Service (SAS), have been operating in Iraq in conjunction with other western forces to help plot attacks on the militants, with snipers taking out high-level members of the terror group on several occasions.

#4  The verb "swooped" is missing. Story may be a plant.

#3  A) Now what can they do with them?

B) think they brief the PM AFTER they've pulled a raid rather than before.

If they did B before A, the gov't would probably give them houses in Bradford and complete welfare coverage.

#2  You won't find out because the SAS is so black no one knows much of anything about who they are or what they do. I think they brief the PM AFTER they've pulled a raid rather than before.

Their security is about as tight as it gets.

And you can bet that they are interrogating the piss out of these clowns...waterboarding is NOT off the table for the SAS.

#1  Now what can they do with them? Perhaps the Iraqi government can properly interrogate and re-educate them?
